(BEGINNER VERSION, because so many instructors I have spoken with have mixed ability classes, I
thought it might be helpful to have an easier alternate. If you want you can simply substitute counts
25-32 with the following 8 counts and voila you have and easy floor split with a beginner and an
improver dance…what’s not to love?
